LOOK: Indiana football to wear ‘candy stripe’ uniforms against Nebraska

The Indiana football team will have a different look for the Oct. 15 game against Nebraska.

The Hoosiers will wear an alternate uniform for the homecoming game against the Huskers, the school announced on Wednesday. The uniform includes ‘candy stripe’ sleeves that pay homage to the famous warm-ups of the basketball team.

The historic inspiration continues with white classic tackle twill numbers, highlighted with hints of the Indiana state flag. Each number has its own unique piece of the flag, depicting different angles of the 19 stars and torch that represent liberty and enlightenment of the 19thstate to join the United States. Additionally, six stars releasing rays of light that embody the state’s far-reaching influence are depicted within the design. Topping off the theme on the jersey, the interlocking IU emblem sits directly above the chest plate to amplify Hoosier pride.
